Will We Hold It Wednesday – S&P 2,050 Edition
S&P 2,050! Why not? Why not 3,000? 3,500? 4,000? Is there any number that will begin to sound ridiculous to top 1% traders, who are using the Fed’s Free Money to make even more money for themselves?

Instead, prices rise when the conviction to buy is greater than the conviction to sell. It can be thought of this way under bullish conditions, […]
Apple Drops, But No Need To Worry
Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) might have clocked a record high of $115 in the market, but that has not stopped some of the biggest hedge funds in the U.S from offloading their stakes in the company.

Helpful Thoughts About Coal
“Coal is a dead man walking” -Kevin Parker (Deutsche Bank Executive) Well, I don’t know about that, Kevin.
